ABOUT

Yosef Gutman Levitt is a bassist and composer in Jerusalem whose music grows out of the nigun, the wordless Hasidic melody, and out of a lifelong conversation with jazz. His main instrument is a five-string acoustic bass guitar built by Harvey Citron, a high, singing instrument he plays as a melodic voice as much as a bass; he also plays upright bass. Since returning to music in 2018 he has released more than fifteen albums and EPs on his own label, Soul Song Records, with musicians including guitarist Lionel Loueke, pianist Yonathan Avishai (ECM), Peter Broderick, guitarists Gilad Hekselman and Tal Yahalom, pianist Omri Mor, cellist Yoed Nir and woodwind player and producer Gilad Ronen.
